Title: 1967 A65 Thunderbolt
Post by: Talisker on 04 Oct, 2019, 20:29
I have reassembled the front wheel and forks but on putting it all back together the wheel is nearer one fork leg than the other ie not central. is this normal or have I got to strip it back down? Regards Jim

Hi Talisker,
                Could be offset or maybe worth reading this:

Another service bulletin which may be of interest.

It is dated December 1966.

Is the wheel completely offset to one side, or is it "leaning"

Mike it appears to be offset but I am thinking to take it off the lift that its been on for the last six months during the rebuild, bit of a puzzle this one. Regards Jim
